GLAMWiki Conference 2018: Extension of Content Submission Deadline Till May 7th.
by Shani Evenstein 30 Apr '18

30 Apr '18

Dear all, *Deadline extension* The program committee is looking to create a diverse GLAM conference that truly serves the global community. To achieve this goal, we would like to accept submissions not only from established GLAM projects and communities, but also from emerging communities / developing countries / groups just starting out their GLAM endeavors. Looking at the submissions so far <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:GLAM_TLV_2018_open_submissions>, we have decided to extend the content submission <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAMTLV2018/Program> deadline *till next Monday, May 7th, at midnight *(wherever you are in the world). We are hoping this extension will encourage more submission from developing countries, emerging community and allow for a more diverse program. *Tips* In the past week I've been asked repeatedly if I have tips for good submissions. The best tip I can offer is -- no matter if your GLAM partnership / project is well established or you are just starting out, make sure your submissions offers an added value beyond "this is what we did in our project", i.e. focus on what you leaned and how it could be of use by others in the GLAM community. GLAM on, Shani.

Tighe Flanagan is leaving WMF to pursue a creative venture
by Tighe Flanagan 26 Apr '18

26 Apr '18

Dear Wikimedia Education community, After nearly 5 years at the Wikimedia Foundation, I’ll be leaving my role on the education team this month to pursue a personal creative endeavor. My last day will be April 13. I’ve treasured my time here with great colleagues around the movement. I’ve been inspired on a daily basis by what people are doing with Wikimedia and education around the world. I’ve learned so much having a diverse set of intelligent and passionate collaborators over the years. Thank you! In my absence, please direct any education-related questions to my colleagues. I had been the regional focal point for Africa and the Middle East, and going forward community members from those regions can reach the full education team by emailing education(a)wikimedia.org or you can reach out directly to Nichole Saad (nsaad(a)wikimedia.org) or Vahid Masrour ( vmasrour(a)wikimedia.org). If you have any other questions, you can direct them to Ben Vershbow (bvershbow(a)wikimedia.org) who leads the Community Programs team. I’m excited to see what this community is able to accomplish going forward. And if you’re curious about my creative endeavors, you can follow along on Instagram (@tigheflanagan). And you might find me on the wikis editing about textile arts and geometric design as user:Tighef in the future (my dormant, non-work account). Best wishes, Tighe -- Tighe Flanagan Senior Manager, Wikipedia Education Program Wikimedia Foundation tflanagan(a)wikimedia.org education.wikimedia.org

If you have any trouble accessing it or altering it for re-use, let me know & I'll send you a copy via personal email. Underneath each slide (in Google slides version only) you should be able to see my copious speaker notes ... hopefully these will be useful to some of you. I have made every effort to ensure that all images & info are used correctly (copyright-wise) & of course the whole presentation is licensed CC-BY. Thanks again to so many of you who contributed your own works & ideas to help me develop this!

Fwd: [Wikimedia-l] Wikipedia Education programme at CHRIST (Deemed to be University)
by Pine W 08 Apr '18

08 Apr '18

I'm forwarding this email from Wikimedia-l to the Education mailing list. Pine ( https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Pine ) ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Ananth Subray <ananth.subray(a)gmail.com> Date: Sat, Apr 7, 2018 at 9:36 PM Subject: [Wikimedia-l] Wikipedia Education programme at CHRIST (Deemed to be University) To: wikimedia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org Hello, Wikipedia Education programme at CHRIST (Deemed to be University) began in 2013 with a goal of piloting Wikipedia as a pedagogic tool for the undergraduate students. Both the educators of the WEP and of the university were new to one such approach. But inside an institution that sees over 20K new faces every year, educating students on creating Wikipedia articles and enhancing the same was very exciting. Students of five Indian languages--Hindi, Kannada, Sanskrit, Tamil, and Urdu--were chosen as these languages were taught as second languages for many students. During the first and second year, almost all the students created new Wikipedia articles where the majority of the articles were below accepted standard. The difficulty in making students learn about input tools in their languages, Wikipedia basics, and wiki markup pushed for creating "how-to" video tutorials in Hindi and Kannada. Working with Urdu was discontinued after the second year because of program staff exit. Slowly, the program was reoriented in a manner that new students learned native language input and markup for the first two semesters by digitizing books on Wikisource and later by editing Wikipedia articles during the next two semesters. This helped better the output by increasing the quality of articles by nearly 30%. From 2015 the program was further improved by helping students get more hands-on training of input, wiki markup by intensive typing during the first semester, a few advanced options like interacting with each other on user talk page during the second semester, moving to Wikipedia editing and developing articles on Wikipedia sandbox during third semester, and finally moving the articles by peer-review from fellow batchmates, faculty and the larger Wikipedia community. The faculty is involved in the development and on-wiki review process ensuring quality. The program so far has gone to the level of producing about 70% very good quality articles where nearly 0.6% of the articles are of really poor quality. The female to male ratio is surprisingly equal and at times, there are more female students as compared to the male ones. However, there is little concern in integrating the student-Wikimedians to the larger Wikimedia community. Also, there is little exchange of learning and best practices between cross-language outreach programs across India across several different languages. One of the ways to better this process is making program leaders talk to each other.

Wikipedia activity of researchers on CV
by Arne Wossink 03 Apr '18

03 Apr '18

Hi all, I was wondering if there are researchers/educators who put Wikipedia articles they've written/contributed to (or more in general their Wikimedia activity) on their list of publications or CV, and if so, in what way (listing user name, listing specific articles/contributions, etc.). Best, Arne Wossink Projectleider / Project Manager Wikimedia Nederland *(Werkdagen: maandag, dinsdag, donderdag / Office hours: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday)* Tel. +31 (0)6 11000505 E-mail: wossink(a)wikimedia.nl *Post/bezoekadres:* Mariaplaats 3 3511 LH Utrecht
